Sudden and Peculiar Death of Mr. J.H. Bass
Mr. John Henry Bass died at his home in Mechanicsburg this morning at 8 o?clock of hemorrhage of the nose. His case is a somewhat peculiar one. last Friday night shortly after supper his nose began to bleed profusely without any apparent cause and continued to bleed with scarcely any interruption up to the time of his death. Everything that medical skill could suggest was resorted to in order to stop the flow of blood, but to no avail. he was fully conscious till the last moment and his death was apparently painless.
Mr. Bass as about thirty-three years old and leaves a young wife and one child. He came to this city from Grand Rivers about eight years ago and since his residence here has been in the employment of the St. Bernard Coal Company.
